The C option, which is the most generally useful, + may be selected by specifying an N value of zero or less. + If N is 1 or more, the parameters of the Nth station + in the currently supported list are interrogated, and + the station identifier C is returned as well as NAME, W, + P and H. + <DT>3. +<DD>If the station parameters are not available, either because + the station identifier C is not recognized, or because an + N value greater than the number of stations supported is + given, a name of `?' is returned and W, P and H are left in + their current states. + <DT>4. +<DD>Programs can obtain a list of all currently supported + stations by calling the routine repeatedly, with N=1,2,3... + When NAME=`?' is seen, the list of stations has been + exhausted. The stations at the time of writing are listed + below. + <DT>5. +<DD>Station numbers, identifiers, names and other details are + subject to change and should not be hardwired into + application programs. + <DT>6. +<DD>All station identifiers C are uppercase only; lower case + characters must be converted to uppercase by the calling + program. The station names returned may contain both upper- + and lowercase. All characters up to the first space are + checked; thus an abbreviated ID will return the parameters + for the first station in the list which matches the + abbreviation supplied, and no station in the list will ever + contain embedded spaces. C must not have leading spaces. + <DT>7. +<DD>IMPORTANT - BEWARE OF THE LONGITUDE SIGN CONVENTION. The + longitude returned by sla_OBS is + <B>west-positive</B>, following the pre-1984 <I>Astronomical + Almanac</I>. However, this sign convention is left-handed and is + the opposite of the one now used; elsewhere in + SLALIB the preferable east-positive convention is used. In + particular, note that for use in sla_AOP, sla_AOPPA and + sla_OAP the sign of the longitude must be reversed. + <DT>8. +<DD>Users are urged to inform the author of any improvements + they would like to see made.
